So you're saying there's a chance.
If your brain didn't immediately flash to Jim Carrey in a flourescent orange tuxedo then there's no hope for you and you should just shut your computer off, head home and start your weekend early.
For shame.
Anyway, according to the latest report from Armando Salguero of The Miami Herald, the Miami Dolphins may, in fact, have more than a one-in-a-million chance to sign Detroit Lions defensive tackle and professional bully Ndamukong Suh once the NFL free agency period opens in March.
Or, at least that's what they're telling themselves.
"I'm told the Dolphins are confident they're going to put a great offer on the table for Suh. They are confident they can get him," Salguero writes.
He also tosses out the number 102 - as in Suh's fat, new contract may come in at a value somewhere near $102 million with a length of approximately six seasons or so.
Salguero also estimates that the guarantee in the deal will be somewhere around $30-32 million "with another $20-$25 million in additional guarantees."
Of course, there are no certainties in the NFL as in life until pen hits paper and defensive tackle hits running back, but it sure sounds like Dolphins are banking on adding the big, bad Suh come next Tuesday.
Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reported Thursday that he has also heard talk around the league that the Dolphins are the current - and perhaps final - frontrunners for Suh's services.
"PFT continues to hear that the team with the best chance of landing Suh is the Dolphins," Florio wrote. "And for good reason; owner Stephen Ross previously whiffed on coach Jim Harbaugh, quarterback Peyton Manning, and coach Jeff Fisher. Ross wants to make a splash, as does new executive V.P. of football operations Mike Tannenbaum."
Ross is also expected to push the lack of state income taxes in Florida as a means of drawing the former Lion into his Dolphin-themed cage.
